RESUMEN
Presentamos un caso clínico en el que el uso de metadona redujo de manera importante un dolor no controlado adecuadamente con otros opiáceos. En una revisión amplia de la bibliografía se describe la utilidad de la metadona en rotación de opioides cuando el dolor es refractario a otros opiáceos, si bien no existe un consenso al respecto. El uso de metadona debe reservarse a situaciones de dolor de difícil control. Asimismo es importante considerar el componente neuropático a la hora de decidirnos por el uso de este opiáceo. Aunque existen referencias en cuanto a las dosis equianalgésicas respecto a la morfina, es de suma importancia individualizar la dosis (AU)
ABSTRACT
We report a case where the use of methadone considerably reduced pain inadequately controlled with other opiates. An extensive literature review described the usefulness of methadone in opioid rotation when refractory pain will not respond to other opiates, but there is no consensus on this topic yet. Methadone must be used in situations where pain is difficult to control. A consideration of the neuropathic component of pain is also relevant when a decision must be made regarding this opioid. While there are references for equianalgesic doses regarding morphine, dose tailoring is extremely important (AU)
